They are making and selling special coffee at a coffee caf. They are also making a lot of money.Th
15、ese students can make up to twelve hundred dollars a day. They are selling their special coffee to airplane passengers. After the students get paid, the rest of the money goes to helping a local youth project.These high school students use a space in the Oakland airport. It is usually very crowded.
16、Many people who fly on the planes like to drink the special coffee.One customer thinks that the coffee costs a lot but it is good and worth it. Most customers are pleasant but some are unhappy. They do not like it if the coffee care is not open for business.The students earn $6.10 an hour plus tips.
17、 They also get school credit while they learn how to run a business. Many of the students enjoy the work although it took some time to learn how to do it.They have to learn how to steam milk, load the pots, and add flavor.

Earning Mon
20、ey B. Students LifeC. Little Business D. Kids Caf（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Human needs seem endless. They might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is enough money to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears:The first and most basic level of needs involve
21、s food. Once this level is satisfied, the second level of needs, clothing and some sort of shelter, appears. By the end of World War , these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this
22、third level of needs was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s, a fourth level of needs appeared: the “life-enriching“ level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction, that is, the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation, this level stresses mental needs for recognition, ac
23、hievement, and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical and dental care, and recreation. Also included here are fancy goods and the latest styles in clothing.On the fourth level, a lot of money is spent on services, while on the first th
24、ree levels more is spent on goods.A fifth level would probably involve needs that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime, and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our gara
25、ges, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.（分数：12.00）(1).According to the passage, man will begin to think about such needs as housing and clothing only when _.A. he has saved up enough moneyB.

The more earnings the better.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The author tends to think that the fifth level _.A. would
28、be little better than the fourth levelB. may be a lot more desirable than the first fourC. can be the last and most satisfying levelD. will become attainable before the government takes actions（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.七、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.00)How can we get rid of garbage? Do we have enough energy sou
29、rces to meet our future energy needs?These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage.For a long
30、time, people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuel
31、s. As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source. Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is pro
32、duced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.Our fossil fuel s
33、upplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs.（分数：12.00）(1).What two problems can man solve by burning garbage?A.

Delighte
35、d. B. Sad. C. Agreeing. D. Disagreeing.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The best title for the passage may be _.A. Garbage and the Earth B. Fossil Fuel and GarbageC. Land and Garbage D. Garbage? Energy Source（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.八、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Many people want to know how to analyze problems they mee
36、t. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sams bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam c
37、an repair his bicycle, he must find the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible sol
38、utions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop.After studying the problem, the person should have sever
39、al suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes
40、 very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is test
41、ed. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short, he has solved the problem.（分数：12.00）(1).In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except _.A. recognize and define the problemB. look for information to make the problem clearerC. have suggest
42、ions for a possible solutionD. find a solution by trial or mistake（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).By referring to Sams broken bicycle, the author intends to _.A. illustrate the ways to repair his bicycleB. discuss the problems of his bicycleC. tell us how to solve a problemD. show us how simple it is to repair
43、 a bicycle（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).As used in the last sentence, the phrase “in short“ means _.A. in the long run B. in detail C. in fact D. in a word（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).What is the best title for this passage?A. Six Stages for Repairing Sams Bicycle.B. Possible Steps of Problem-solving.C. Necessities
44、of Problem Analysis.D. Importance of Analyzing a Problem.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.九、Passage Five(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Have you ever wondered why authors write? Sometimes they are inspired to create stories. Other times they write to provide information about an interesting topic. Some authors write to convince us
45、 about something. Whatever the circumstances, authors have reasons for writing; this is called, the “authors purpose.“ The three most common types of authors purpose are: to entertain, to inform, and to persuade.Think about the last time a story made you laugh, cry, or tremble with fright. These typ
46、es of stories are written with a particular purpose in mind: to entertain the reader. Authors write many kinds of stories to entertain, including humorous fiction, realistic fiction, fantasy, fairy tales, and fables. While fiction entertains, non-fiction has a different purpose.Many non-fiction writ
47、ings or texts are written with the purpose of giving information about an interesting topic. Authors who write to inform must research their subject to ensure that they convey accurate information to the reader. Some examples of texts that inform are encyclopedia entries, news articles, expository n
48、on-fiction books, and interviews. All of these types of writing give information about certain topics.Sometimes authors write because they want to convince their readers about something. This is called argumentative, or persuasive writing. Oftentimes, texts that are meant to persuade use specific te
49、chniques to make the reader care about the subject, and to think about it in a certain way. These techniques might be found in letters to the editor, argumentative essays, or persuasive speeches.Next time you read a text, see if you can figure what the author is trying to tell you. It might be easier than you think. Just ask yourself: what is the authors purpose?（分数：12.00）(1).Which of the following is most likely the title of a passage in which
